Hey Scott:
It is exceedingly warm down here.

Pueblo is kind of like in a banana belt. I haven't seen any snowflakes yet. Temp is still pretty steady in the 50s and 60s. A bit windy sometimes--but warm. I'll take it.
I had to get out of the mountains. It was straining my sanity. Too cold for too long. It actually snowed the day I left Leadville. I got out just in time

.
We bought a house here in Pueblo and just love it. I got a 1200sq/ft shop in an unfinished basement and my wife has a double garage to park her car in.
My back is getting better, but it's a slow and frustrating process.
I sure don't miss that snow. Thanks so much for your hospitality last year. You guys are a great bunch of guy and it was fun flying with you. If you ever get down to Pueblo and want to go flying--I got planes and TX's you can borrow. Just shoot me a PM and I'll give ya my phone number.
Take care and stay warm.
